Wednesday, November 12th, 2008I’m busily working on (what I think are) some clever holiday gift bags. The reusable kind. Find a variety of sizes and themes over at my shop. My favorite one so far is the Cardinal Set. These just beg to be gifted to a friend filled with a yummy loaf of pumpkin bread! It’s the [...]
Saturday’s bag….for holiday gifts
Saturday, November 8th, 2008Ok, I’ve skipped Wednesday through Friday’s bags. Those need finishing touches still and, well, Friday’s bag never happened. I was too busy finishing a book, I confess, and being generally lazy.
Today, my theme is Gift bags. I’m so “into” these; they’re reusable, and oftentimes much cuter than their paper counterpart. I discovered fabric gift bags [...]
Tuesday’s Bag
Thursday, November 6th, 2008Tuesday’s bag was a smaller item. The election got me sidetracked since I was caught up with watching the results come in. Anyway, I made a cell phone (or iPod) pouch with an additional interior slot for a credit card, driver’s license or a few dollars. This was inspired by a recent client who suggested [...]
Monday’s bag…Noah’s Ark
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008The Noah’s Ark Baby Bag.
Ugh! I see way too many moms out there carrying ginormous diaper bags around (you know what I’m saying ~ the ones that look like they’ve packed for a long weekend trip!), even for short trips out and about. What I love about these tote-along friendly baby bags is their nice [...]
Sunday’s bag…I’m calling it the Carnival Bag.
Monday, November 3rd, 2008The Carnival Bag. This messenger bag is a custom project for a client (sorry gang, not for sale!) who had some specific dimensions she needed for her bag. She selected these yummy Sandi Henderson prints and they are so bright and cheerful, they remind me of a day at the Carnival! I also made her [...]
‘Bag-a-day’ challenge.
Sunday, November 2nd, 2008I’m challenging myself to make a new “something” each day for a week. There, I said it. Now I’m committed. (oh my goodness, what have I done). I want to get my shop stocked up some more for the Holiday season, so here we go! Plus, I have a slew of unfinished projects that I [...]
Zippered Pouches…we all need them.
Thursday, October 30th, 2008It’s one of my favorite things to make, actually. I love zippered pouches. Of all sizes. And I don’t even mind putting in the zipper and handmaking the piping. Seriously!!
Here’s a recent set I’ve made and am stocking them tomorrow at noon (EST) on Wonderland Congo. It includes a zippered pouch and matching key fob, [...]
My Handbag Gallery
Tuesday, October 28th, 2008If you’ve never seen the handiwork my web designer, Cicily of August Afternoon, has done with my Cute2Carry boutique website you should check it out! She does amazing work! Her latest gem was switching me over to a new Handbag Gallery which lets me update my own photos, not to mention takes a huge burden [...]
Hannah Montana Mania
Monday, October 27th, 2008….or should I say Hannah Miranda mania!?!?!!! My good friend, Shelly, threw a Hannah Montana birthday themed party this past weekend for her daughter, Miranda. I got to make a Hannah Montana messenger school bag for her, and it turned out so fab! I loved the results!
Here’s Miranda sporting all her HM gear. What a [...]
The beginning of Gift Season!
Monday, September 29th, 2008Can you believe that the holiday season is quickly sneaking up on us?! I’m working on a selection of thoughtful accessories that are all things I’d love to receive as gifts, so I’m hoping that others will, too! Some of the items I have already begun stocking my my shop, like cute eye glasses cases. [...]
